]]>Discount airline Norwegian Air plans to launch flights between Canada and Europe beginning this summer.

While regulatory approval is required before the service can officially take flight, the CBC is reporting that the Canadian Transportation Agency (CTA) granted the airline a permit to sell tickets ahead of a planned launch on July 23, 2018.

At this time, the airline isn’t offering any details on destinations or prices it plans to offer at launch.

Company CEO Bjorn Kjos previously told the Irish Independent that Norwegian Air could fly from Dublin to Toronto with its new fleet of Boeing 737 Max jets.

]]>Loblaw Companies Ltd. announced Tuesday that it is adding cricket powder to its line of President’s Choice food products.

The company says high-protein cricket powder can be added to baked goods, smoothies or meals, to provide high levels of protein, B12, calcium and fibre.

Crickets used to make the powder are produced at a cricket farm in southern Ontario.

“By making products like Cricket Powder widely available in our grocery stores, we are giving Canadians the option to not only try something new, but to also make a conscious decision on what they eat and how it impacts the environment,” Kathlyne Ross, Loblaw’s vice-president of product development and innovation said in a statement.

President’s Choice 100% Cricket Powder can be found at Loblaw stores nationwide.

]]>Quebec’s Geloso Group says it will cease production of its sweetened alcoholic beverage FCKD UP.

In a statement released Sunday night, the beverage company said it ordered its employees to cease production of the drink immediately. The drink has an alcohol rate of 11.9 per cent.

Geloso introduced the drink in 2017 after a U.S. competitor introduced a sweetened alcoholic beverage in Quebec with an 11.9 per cent alcohol content named Four Loko.

The move to pull the drink comes shortly after Montreal’s La Presse reported that a 14-year-old girl had been drinking stolen cans of the sweetened alcoholic drink prior to her death.

“The Geloso Group has also taken concrete measures with its advertising to encourage responsible and legal consumption of its alcoholic beverages. The target audience for the marketing of this product has always been the 18-25 age group, excluding those not yet of legal drinking age,” Aldo Geloso, co-president of the Geloso Group said in a statement.

“All this being said, with hindsight, I think it was a mistake to enter this category to compete with Four Loko,” added Geloso.

]]>Subway Canada is shaking up its loyalty program with the launch Subway MyWay Rewards on March 1, 2018.

Under the program, members earn 4 tokens for every dollar spent. Once 200 tokens are accumulated, a $2 discount will be issued automatically. Tokens are applied to members’ accounts with every menu item purchased.

Reward dollars can be used toward the purchase of any item on the menu, including sandwiches, salads, cookies and drinks.

Another element of the program features Surprise Rewards, where members can earn free cookies, chips and sandwiches with any purchase. The chances of earning a Surprise Reward increases with the number of purchases made. Members will also receive birthday surprises.

The new MyWay loyalty program will first launch in Canadian restaurants outside of Quebec beginning in March with a Quebec launch following in late 2018.
